Brand new series. It’s going to be a game as a service and will be getting updates continuously. The game is free and all characters are free but has a battlepass for unlocking characters, card backings, and dances. Characters all have unique abilities such as Master Chief where if he plays 2 cards of the same number it instead acts like a triple and he moves that many number of spaces but in a warthog.
They also decided Sonic Shuffle had it right and cards was a better idea then dice. However this does mean you need a cellphone on hand to play as that’s where you can select your cards and items.
Looking forward to hearing more about Halo Infinite as an unbashed Halo 4 fan that thought Halo 5’s Warzone mode was a good development for the series’ multiplayer.
This is a weirdly specific complaint about this Halo stuff but all of the weapons look so… boring? Like in terms of visual design. Theres something to how weird even the ballistic weapons look in old Halo that really adds to the “military action space opera” aesthetic. Everything is just so messy and weird in those early games and this seems clean and boring in comparison.
Tremendous value and pretty much secured me for the next gen of Xbox. Microsoft are so savvy as well in having all your Game Pass downloads listed as such in your games list. I must be sitting at about a third to half of my library being stacked with them.
